Bienvenido a la plataforma

Estoy feliz de poder volver a participar en ATMEX 2020. Tuve la oportunidad de participar en 2019 y sin duda es el evento más efectivo y productivo al que he asistí durante el año incluyendo incluso Ferias nacionales e internacionales. La organización cuidada y personalizada en todo momento y los contactos que tuve oportunidad de hacer en el Marketplace tanto nacionales como internacionales todos con buenos resultados. Relaciones que hoy siguen y espero continúen durante mucho tiempo. Sin duda confirmo que lo que importa no es el tamaño del evento si no la calidad y el cariño con el que se organiza. Gracias ATMEX!!

A little over a decade ago, not knowing what I was getting into, I took a job as a photographer at a Los Cabos tour company. From that moment I fell in love with the photo and began to study it passionately.

My career as a photographer has always had a documentary approach, and has undergone various transformations, by chance of fate, from souvenirs to portraits, then weddings, products, commercial, and finally to international adventure tourism and video for 6 years. With the practice of these and other styles I have developed not only a very personal vision for telling stories through my images, but also one or two life lessons inspired by the challenges and joys of being a storyteller.

An international collaboration project with the nearby village of El Tigre and the Kingdom of Bhutan promoted community sustainability and conservation with adventure tourism development.

Always ready to take conservation and tourism even further, Rafael created the world’s first certified carbon neutral sporting event with the 2011 IRF World Rafting Championship in Costa Rica, thanks to a large-scale tree-planting campaign.

Filmmaker and contents of consciousness on nature in all its expressions, and ancestral roots in all its manifestations. Our first film is called Believing is Creating, and the last is Escaping.

For almost 20 years I have been hiking in the forest where I live, the desert of the lions. Those walks transformed my whole life. Recently, we discovered that in Japan this practice is called forest baths. It is a public policy that has helped them reduce the stress levels of the population, and heal many other diseases. It is already recognized as a forest medicine and is attracting visitors from around the world. Today, several countries like Spain, Great Britain, the United States among others, have followed in the footsteps of Japan. Mexico can be too. We have everything to do it.

From 2009-2014 I lived in the Netherlands working in organic farming.

In addition, I am part of the team in charge of the “Wootton Fields Northampton Nature Reserve Restoration Project”, under the support of Gaia Education and Ecosystem Restoration Camps.

I participate and collaborate in various roundtables and workshops with communities or organizations in favor of nature and environment restoration and conservation.

Since I was a child I learned to live respecting nature. I have a special affection for the municipality of Guerrero, Coahuila where I also learned about holistic livestock raising and grazing, sustainable hunting, environmental conservation, and the value of water and nature retribution. 

My favorite hobbies are many, creating with my hands, being in nature, cooking with products of my harvest, and sharing it with friends and family. Music and animals are my best allies, my husband my best friend.

Durante diez años, Sonia Renison relevó con trabajo periodístico cada tramo de la “trilogía” rutera de la Argentina. Hizo un detallado relevamiento por la Ruta 40, el corredor más largo del país y editó 150 notas periodísticas que en forma de saga rutera publicó cada semana durante un año y medio en la revista argentina EL FEDERAL.

Además, desarrolló durante 45 notas la sección “Ruta de la Selva” para la cual relevó periodísticamente la provincia de Misiones, uniendo cataratas y saltos hasta los esteros del Iberá en Corrientes para llegar al Impenetrable en el Chaco, los bañados en Formosa y las Yungas de Tucumán, Salta y Jujuy, recorriendo pueblos, culturas, historias y naturaleza del corredor verde desde la mesopotamia hasta el norte de la Argentina. La travesía periodística continuó por el Corredor de la Ruta Azul que se editó en 68 notas que durante un año, en forma semanal, relataron esta travesía en el litoral marino costero del país. Son veinte años, relevando rincones argentinos para contarlos en distintos formatos desde televisión abierta hasta podcast (infoback.news) y la publicación de la tercer edición del libro: Ruta 40, Cinco Mil Doscientos Kilómetros de la Patagonia al Norte argentino (Editorial Planeta) junto con el Seminario Interdisciplinario Crónicas Ruteras: La 40 que dicta en la Universidad Nacional de La Plata, declarado de Interés por el Honorable Congreso de la Nación Argentina en 2015, distinguen a la comunicadora para contar lo que vio: Una travesía por la Argentina.

Nací en Madrid en 1975. Desde 2002 comencé a viajar asiduamente por la Argentina, quedando fascinado desde el primer momento por la belleza de sus paisajes y la diversidad de su naturaleza.

En 2011 decidí mudarme a San Martín de los Andes, donde fundé Tierras Patagónicas, un emprendimiento turístico dedicado a dar a conocer las maravillas de la Patagonia a los viajeros extranjeros, saliendo de los circuitos turísticos habituales

Con el eje de la Ruta 40 diseño y lidero road trips recorriendo la Patagonia de norte a sur llevando a los viajeros a lugares muy alejados de los principales centros turísticos. Soy también guía de trekking, guía de observación de aves y fotógrafo de naturaleza por lo que en mis viajes estas actividades tienen siempre un lugar importante.
Actualmente opero bajo la marca Patagonian Wild (https://www.patagonianwild.com/), ofreciendo road trips y salidas de observación de aves, fotografía de naturaleza y trekking. La esencia de Patagonia Wild es dar un servicio personalizado, de forma que el pasajero pueda hacer de su viaje una experiencia diferente, única e inolvidable. Trabajamos sólo con grupos reducidos, adaptando cada viaje a las necesidades e intereses de nuestros clientes. Apoyamos a las comunidades y emprendedores locales para hacer del turismo responsable una herramienta para la conservación de los espacios naturales que tanto amamos.

Somos una Empresa familiar dedicada a programas especiales de Turismo Privado vinculados con la Naturaleza, la Cultura y la Aventura. Soy guía de Parques Nacionales y focalizamos nuestro trabajo en las áreas protegidas para la observación de Aves y Fauna Silvestre. 

Nuestra Gente y las comunidades Originales, la comida regional y el placer de un buen vino de altura permiten combinar la vida agreste con el relax y confort de la hotelería boutique. Nos apasiona lo vivencial y aprendemos permanentemente que el verdadero objetivo de un VIAJE es lograr una transformación personal.

Fuimos seleccionados por revistas especializadas como Lugares, Tiempo de Aventura, ELLE Great Britain, Conde Nast Travelers y Diario La Nación para realizar numerosas experiencias de viajes y notas sobre circuitos alternativos, fuera de lo tradicional, llegando a donde nadie llega. También trabajamos para National Geographic, BBC2, South African Broadcasting Corp. y Desarrollamos los programas turísticos para el Comité Internacional de Patimonio Industrial (TICCHI)
